BDP-1500 Stop function.

by ka1cgl - 10/25/08 3:49 PM

Hi, Just got the 1500 with the Matrix Trilogy. The load time is typical of the HD-DVD and Blu-Ray technology. My problem is when I push stop a few chapters into the movie, and push {resume} play,the movie always goes back to the beginning. This is not acceptable. Regular DVDs work as they should from anypoint. What is going on here?? The Toshiba HD-DVD needed a firm ware fix for the same thing. Can somebody help me out here? Thanks. Richard

Firmware?

There is a firmware update available on the website.

I'm not exactly sure if that firmware addresses that specific issue, but I'll see what I can find out.

In the meantime, here is the download website for the BD-P1500 firmware if you'd like to try that in the meantime:

Same problem here

Any word on this "Stop" problem. I just purchased the 1500 today and it also happens when you switch inputs from the Blu-Ray to TV. The 1500 shuts off and restarts the disc.

Tried the 2550

Well, I have returned my 1500 to Futureshop and purchased the 2550 hoping it wouldn't have the same problem. Unfortunately it does. I am doing an update now and hopefully it somehow fixes this annoying problem. If it doesn't I am going to return this one also and get the Panasonic BD335. I hope that this update fixes things or that someone here can help me out.

Switching from Blu-Ray to TV causes disc to restart

by Alan-Toronto - 1/2/09 9:47 AM In reply to: Firmware? by Samsung_HD_Tech Samsung staff

I can confirm this. I have Samsung LN40A750 TV, and BD-P1500 with latest firmware. When watching a movie on the BD-P1500, if I use the TV remote to switch inputs from the Blu-Ray to TV, even for a few seconds, when I return to BD-P1500 the movie restarts from the beginning. It makes no difference if I first hit Stop or Pause on the BD-P1500 remote.
